Feb First Woodland Burial, Dayna

Gills beloved cat, Dayna, aged 15 years, from London to Model Farm, died. A beautiful Persian who’d become less aloof, and managed to pur in the last few days of her life

Gill, 80, and I 58, struggled to dig into the root bound earth. Gill resorting to her bare hands. We called in the muscle – Arthur, aged 80, who dug with the expert nature of a farmer. He arrived with a sharper spade and stories of his experiences of digging ditches and grubbing up hedges.

Dayna shrouded in her basket, was laid to rest in the earth by her loving mistress. We lunched at the Cut, full of children.
